News on RTV shaft rattle?

[Ricochet]

It's safe to hold your breath on the rattle fix, but wait a few weeks on the fogging issue with the gauges. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

I will surely take pics and post whether it works or not. First, will someone tell me how to post pics? I'm not quite sure how this is done. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Fred,

Since the dealer is doing the repair, can you take your camera when you drop it off and get some pics of the new part before installed? Once installed, we probably won't be able to see much.

Check the news/feedback forum for detailed instructions on how to post.
Basically:
Write your new post.
Make sure "I want to preview my message or attach a file" is checked.
In the preview pane, click browse next to "You may attach a file if you like (no bigger than 100000 bytes please" and follow the path to the pic on your PC.
When you click "Post This Message!" the pic will be uploaded.

Thanks Brian,

I'll take some pics as soon as I hear from the dealer. The rep said he was dropping the parts off today, so maybe I'll get a call today or tomorrow. I hope it works.

Just got back from the dealer who applied the new yoke and bushings today. They also replaced the fuel and temp gauges as well. The revision dated on the back of the gauges were dated 4/4/05. I'll attempt to attach some pics of all.
So far I haven't put any time on the RTV, just to back it on and off the trailer, but I'll drive it more today and give some type of feedback. Just remember I thought initially it was fixed the first three times as well.
If you can tell in the pics the three parts are the clamp-on type yoke, a brass collar, and a plastic bushing.
This fix is not out formally, it just was supplied hot off the engineer's desk and I guess they are using my RTV as a test machine. I hope it works. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
After trying to attach the pics they are too large, 160K and I think the limit is 100K. Need some help. I can email them to some one who might can post them another way. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I'll post them for you (PM me with your email addy).
